I want a partner. A non-drinking, non-smoking, cunt-lovin' (and I mean really), porn-hating, REASONABLE, compassionate, intelligent, motivated, animal-loving, emotionally-available, kind, realistic, self-respecting, romantic, radical, ambitious (in whatever capacity), affectionate, hard-working, reliable, government-hating, gardening, non-misogynistic, common-sensible, receptive, creative, well-intentioned, loyal, patient, sentimental, loving, HONEST, intellectual, vaguely self-critical (or at least incredibly self-reflective), understanding, benevolent partner who listens to what I say, loves me for who I am and what I want to be, and never, ever makes me feel shortchanged or crazy or stupid for how I act and what I believe.
Don't I deserve this? I mean, I don't need to be with someone, but I really, really want to, and I don't think that that makes me needy or demanding or any less of a whole person.
Also, all of this would be ideal, which is near impossible. Lack of some of those attributes are deal-breakers, some are not.
There's a really awesome cat who has been hanging around my dorm lately. Last night I was on the phone at 1:30, and he just came up to me and got in my lap and fell asleep, and it was the best therapy anyone could ever ask for.
